Meat Puppets II (Deluxe Edition)
“Each Sunday, Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at a significant album from the past, and any record not in our archives is eligible. Today we revisit the Meat Puppets’ 1984 album, a sun-baked, country-fried, acid-addled cowpunk album that could have come from nowhere else but the Arizona desert.”
Dusty Notes
“Meat Puppets’ 15th album mirrors the Kirkwood brothers’ ethos: earthy and out of time, casual and familiar, and wholly at ease with itself.”
Dusty Notes
“The first album since the Nineties from the stoner gods' original lineup is full of the weird, comforting beauty of their finest work”
Lollipop
“Three albums into their career reboot, the classic 80s indie rockers continue to mine a more laid-back direction.”
Sewn Together
“With their second album in three years-- and a healthy touring schedule-- the Kirkwood Brothers are well and truly all the way back.”
Rat Farm
“From the spluttering hardcore of their first LP through wildcard bassist Cris Kirkwood's lost years, the Meat Puppets seemed to chase chaos, musical and otherwise. On their 14th album, they opt more for a leisurely drive down a familiar track.”
Wavelength is the Letterboxd for music.
